Vineyards Elementary School

As a parent of a current student I am very happy with the way this school is run. Teachers and other workers are so respectful to students and parents. Also, as far as safety there’s always a police officer that is always so helpful with traffic, also greeting kids and parents.

We have no clue what's going on. Our kid is Failing. It's all smiles.nobody cares.

I have two children who are in Kindergarten and 2nd grade. The teachers are very caring and do their jobs well. My children love their school and teachers very much.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experience with the lower school was deeply disappointing. The campus looks impressive and they seem to win everyone over with nice breakfast and lunch, but that's where it all ends. The lower school is especially bad. While the upper school is more modern, the lower school feels like you just stepped into 1980. It's ran by people that are completely incompetent and have little regard for children.Academically, the lower school leans hard on conformity. Instead of meeting kids where they are, the approach is to push generic worksheet templates from Etsy on them, then act like that's teaching. For an elementary program, the staff and administration here is about as cold as you can get.Student support did not match the tuition. Counseling and learning resources were hard to access, classroom expectations were inconsistent, and no follow through on promises. New families are welcomed with nice events, but once school starts you quickly find out what this place really is... a networking group for mediocre income parents. They really don't care about the children much, almost as if using them as tools to make connections. People here care about making an extra $40k per year than they do about the children.Every school has a bad day, but what mattered here was the pattern. Lower school leadership is anything but child centered. If you are looking for a place that partners with parents, adapts to individual learners, and communicates openly, you should keep looking. The branding by their marketing team is very well done, but other than that, this school is just a money grab and a poor experience for your children.

ENCA has bee great for all of my children. The staff is very friendly and helpful. My children have done both VPK and wrap around care for several years now and I love the school. The instructors are always communicative and helpful if I have questions or concerns. The leadership staff has always been open and willing to help with any questions or concerns I have. I would recommend this school to anyone!

The school does not value academic success. They are way too easy on the students, especially in middle school. They have a no homework policy which harms the students and prevents them from learning. The academic rigor and encouragement to push students to work and learn is not there. A majority of the students do not value hard work or education. I would send your child elsewhere, especially for middle school. There a few teachers who are really good and value learning and want to teach students how to work and learn, but the administration does not seem to value that. Also, the field trips are very expensive. They cater to a certain crowd.

My granddaughter 2 and 7 both go to this school. My 7 year old has gone since she was 8 months old. I think the program is perfect for my grand children and I am beyond thrilled to see what the dedication, hard work and support this school offer the children and the parents. It may not be for everyone, but I feel this alternative schooling works out for our family. I only pray that when it is time for middle school and high school we can continue this teaching. Public schooling will never be an option for us, so if anyone has any concerns about this type of education you should take the time and sit with the professionals at this school to obtain a lesson in the importance of this criteria.

Amazing School! We have had the most incredible experience for our 3 children. Biblical worldview, amazing athletics and more!
